Siddharth Anand Meets Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar To Discuss Global Peace Thriller White
Filmmaker Siddharth Anand met Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar to discuss White, a global peace thriller inspired by Colombia’s historic non-violent resolution, starring Vikrant Massey.
In a significant meeting on January 20, India’s premier blockbuster filmmaker Siddharth Anand (director of Pathaan, War, Fighter, Bang Bang and upcoming King) met global spiritual leader Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar along with producer Mahaveer Jain. Both Siddharth Anand and Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar have met several times before but this meeting was special. It was held in an atmosphere of deep reflection and vision, centred around the upcoming international thriller White, a project that marks a unique milestone in Indian cinema.
The film, which features National Award winner Vikrant Massey alongside an international cast, is inspired by the incredible true story of the 52-year-long civil conflict in Colombia and its historic resolution through non-violence and peace.
Reflecting on the film’s vision after his meeting with Gurudev, Siddharth Anand shared his excitement for the film, “In many ways, White is the story of the glory of India. At a time when the world is grappling with unprecedented division, this film is truly the need of the hour. It doesn’t just tell the story of one individual; it stands as a testament to the immense strength and weight that Indian values and philosophies carry on the world stage.”
Siddharth Anand further added about the spiritual leader, “Sitting with Gurudev is an incredibly grounding experience. His presence reinforces what we are trying to capture in White – the true power of peace”.
